Sunny Shelly’s Review: Shattered Dreams by Natasha Madison

SHATTERED DREAMS by Natasha Madison is NOW LIVE!

Blurb:

Charlie

It was supposed to be a regular day out.

Three couples celebrating the last days of summer.

When tragedy struck.

I thought I was going to marry her.

Instead, I was burying her.

I blamed the world for my pain.

I buried it all.

I became a man I didn’t even recognize.

Autumn

In a blink of an eye, everything changed.

My best friend was gone, and I was responsible for it.

I may not have been driving the truck, but I didn’t stop it.

Escaping the town was the only thing I could do to survive the guilt.

I thought I was strong enough to go back.

I was wrong.

One look from him and I knew I wasn’t welcome.

But this is my home, and I wanted to come back.

One night turned into more. But at the end of the day, I know he’ll never love me.

Besides, we all have shattered dreams.

Sunny Shelly’s Review: 5 Stars

Yay! Another new spinoff series from Natasha Madison and Shattered Dreams started off STRONG! Get the tissues ready because this book is TOUGH but has the most wonderful HEA once

Charlie is the son of Quinn and Willow from the Southern series and the grandson of the magnificent Casey Barnes. As the book begins, Charlie, Autumn and their friends are in a horrible car accident that ends in two fatalities: Charlie’s girlfriend Jennifer (also Autumn’s best friend) and Autumn’s boyfriend Waylon, who was driving. For several reasons, Autumn took the brunt of blame for the accident, and ended up leaving town to get away from it all.

Eight years later, Charlie is a shell of his former self. Consumed by grief, he has never moved on and still visits Jennifer’s grave almost daily. Autumn isn’t doing much better, and when she comes back home to help with her family’s bar, she quickly learns that Charlie — and most of the town — still blames her for the accident.

Shattered Dreams is an emotional, heartbreaking story of grief, loss, and recovery. Once Charlie learns all that Autumn went through and realizes that she was an easy target for his grief, it’s like a switch is flipped and he is ALL IN when it comes to trying to make things up to her.

There are so many emotional moments in this story, each one better than the last. Shattered Dreams is definitely going to be on my re-read list! I can’t wait for the rest of this series!

I received an advanced copy and voluntarily left a review.

Meet Natasha Madison:

When her nose isn’t buried in a book, or her fingers flying across a keyboard writing, she’s in the kitchen creating gourmet meals. You can find her, in four inch heels no less, in the car chauffeuring kids, or possibly with her husband scheduling his business trips. It’s a good thing her characters do what she says, because even her Labrador doesn’t listen to her…
